That goes for a lot of things, but chances are we're not going back.
ah the leftward ratchet of jurisprudence!

:lol: Let's put it this way... I'm not betting my paycheck on it.ah the leftward ratchet of jurisprudence!
Do you use 18,000 dollars of medical care in a year?
Not usually but we can get close on occasion. My wife has some medical issues that pop on a a semi-regular basis. Hell, we were at the ER just today due to her irretractable migraines. But overall, so far, we have put in more than we have taken out.
I'm going to play devil's advocate here.
If it is repealed, with no replacement, and these people lose their insurance, wouldn't they just go back to what they had before? Which is nothing.
In some cases that would suck, in some cases they'd save a buttload of money.
How important is it to have a replacement for Obamacare prior to repeal?
Should the repeal of Obamacare be delayed until we see what the new program would be? Or, should we proceed full-speed ahead?

We are already past the point of no return.
What needs to happen, is finding a way to streamline the costs of medical care, while finding ways to make pharmaceuticals less expensive without killing the research at the same time.
Damn the torpedoes!! Full speed ahead!
The sooner we ****can that Obamacare crap, the sooner people can get back to controlling their own lives.

Yes! YES!!!! I would love Republicans to go in there screaming naked, with all guns blazing, and gut Obamacare. It will be political gold!!!! Do it guys, do it!
No, no...not "gut" it. That would imply that something is left behind. I want the whole damned thing...all 2000+ pages of it...tossed in the toilet and flushed. That's what you do with turds. You don't keep bits and pieces of your poop, do you?

Then what?
Then they can come up with legislation...smart legislation.
We need work done with a scalpel...not with a bone saw.

As far as burning, slashing, and endless mindless obstructionism of new ideas and suggestions? Why I have no doubt the GOP will do that just fine. After all, that's their specialty!
But the party of "NO" actually coming up with any useful, positive, constructive ideas? This I have got to see to believe! I won't hold my breath though.
Something really terrific?
Believe me, whatever the Republicans come up with you can be assured it won't be the usual, bloated, anti-choice, big-government kind of thing that the Democrats are famous for.

You mean like Homeland Security?Believe me, whatever the Republicans come up with you can be assured it won't be the usual, bloated, anti-choice, big-government kind of thing that the Democrats are famous for.
